DV
is
equipped
with
a
thermistor
and
hi

limit
switch
for
the
exhaust
gas,
detecting
excess
temperatures
within
the
flue
and
enabling
the
unit
to
safely
stop
operations
if
needed.
These
components
are
always
monitoring
exhaust
gas
conditions
in
order
to
prevent
heat
damage
to
PVC
(Plastic)
venting
if
PVC
is
used.
If
the
exhaust
gas
temperature
exceeds
140°F,
these
components
will
enable
the
unit
to
safely
stop
operations.
(For
the
T

H2
‐
OS
model,
these
components
are
not
available
since
